Hey everyone, sorry I haven't added a new chapter to this one in like… forever. XD So, since this is apparently my best story (it's got the most reviews after all…), I better finish it for you guys, ne? Also, thanks so much for all of your reviews! You make me feel special

Disclaimer: InuYasha is owned by Rumiko Takahashi. All must worship her or die. –smileness-


"You'll be sorry you ever tried anything with Kagome…" InuYasha growled at Sekushi. Sango gripped her hiraikotsu harder and didn't hesitate as she launched it through the air at him. Miraculously, he dogged it but just barely. The boomerang bone returned to Sango. From behind Sango, Miroku was beginning to come to.

"What… happened?" He looked up.

"You were knocked out pretty good." She smiled. "Thank goodness you're alright."

Sekushi, in his enormous bear form, stood proudly as he laughed. "Fools… all of you, to defy me. But, I'll forgive you if you hand over the women."

"Not on your life pal." InuYasha stepped forward and swung the tetsusaiga, releasing the Wind Scar, but all it did was knock Sekushi back a little. The others took this time to start on their attacks. Sango took Miroku's staff and bent it so that it was within the hiraikotsu, making it spin faster and it's attack a lot stronger. It hit Sekushi's arm, making a snapping noise. He fell to the ground in agony.

"Well now," Miroku said, "What's this about us being weak, Sekushi?" The hiraikotsu returned to Sango.

"Ha… you don't know the half of it. I am not Sekushi." Everyone's expressions became overcome with surprise. They all looked around to see where he was, but all they could see was a small amount of smoke that rose from the ground ever since InuYasha used his Wind Scar. And that really was all; Kagome was gone as well.

InuYasha's face was becoming pale. Dammit, why didn't I notice?

"InuYasha!" Sango called. "Look, down there!" She pointed to a small entrance that had just recently been opened. "He must've gone out that way!"

"Quick, but not quick enough." The bear demon ran and slid in front of the door. "Don't think you'll be getting passed me."

Elsewhere, Kagome was being carried over the real Sekushi's shoulder. "My dear, I'll take you away and- Ouch!" Kagome pelted him in the head with her fist. "How long have you been awake!"

"Long enough to know what kinda lying creep you really are. But then again, it doesn't take much to realize THAT, am I right?" She continued to kick and struggle.

"Do you really not want to go with me?" He murmured.

"OH! I'm SO glad you're FINALLY figuring that out NOW!" She screamed in his ear.

"That makes me… want you so much more!" He smiled delighted.

"You… freak." This man petrified Kagome more then ever now.

Moments later, they came upon another stone door. He opened it with one hand as he hung onto Kagome's butt with the other.

"EXCUSE ME!" She squealed. "TAKE YOUR HAND OFF OF ME!"

"Would you kindly… SHUT UP!" He screamed back. He leapt out of the door and a few feet down onto some grass. Kagome turned to look and saw nothing but miles of open fields with tall grass, flowers, and a sky that was still dim with the morning light, the sun had only begun to rise. It was a stunning view.

"All of this… is it yours?" Kagome asked feeling suddenly calmed by the surrounding area.

"No, it's just open land. I've never been able to cross it until now and that's because of you."

"Because of… me?"

"The only way I could leave these lands that I've been trapped upon was if I found a wife."

"But you came to Sango and me… doesn't that mean you could leave?"

"Yes, but only to get women." His hand slowly continued to rub Kagome's butt. She lifted her foot and kicked him.

"Oh, touching story, I'm sure it's SO real." She rolled her eyes.

Meanwhile, the bear still stood in front of the entrance. He leapt towards InuYasha with his massive paws, crushing the ground around him. InuYasha lost his balance and fell onto his back. The bear forced his paw down onto him and InuYasha used the tetsusaiga as a shield. He was being pushed further into the breaking ground.

"InuYasha!" Sango prepared to throw her hiraikotsu.

"Stop!" InuYasha called. "Don't! Go… after Kagome… and that creep… while I… hold him off…"

Sango paused for a second, but then ran to the door. Miroku dashed after her and took her hand before she went down. "Sango my dear…" he began. "Please, be safe. And, I'm sorry about before."

"Miroku…" She couldn't help but blush. Without saying anything, she leaned up and gave him a swift kiss on the cheek. She turned and continued down the stairs. Miroku stood with a giddy expression on his face.

"Uhm… A LITTLE HELP HERE MIROKU!" InuYasha called.

Miroku turned around, looking determined. "Right."

Sango continued down the stairs until she saw some glimmer of light. She ran out into the open field where the wind blew calmly. She stopped for only an instant to admire the landscape. Don't worry, Kagome. I'll be on my way. She thought. She turned her head swiftly and looked around. There was a part through the field where the grass was parted a little bit, into a trail.

She stepped onto it and continued down the trail, parting it more hoping that when the other two would catch up they'd know exactly where to go. The grass was about her height so it was hard to see where to go next, but she just kept running. The sun was now completely in the sky and the grass waved with the breeze. Even with how calm everything was, her heart raced.

The fighting continued between InuYasha, Miroku, and the bear demon. Miroku readied his hand to use the wind tunnel as InuYasha slid under the bear, taking its feet with him. The bear began to tower over and fall. InuYasha sent a Wind Scar his way making him fall faster and Miroku opened his Wind Tunnel, capturing the bear in his wide, endless abyss.

"Let's not waste anymore time, InuYasha!" Miroku ran to the door.

"Gotcha." He ran right behind him. I swear, if that creep does ANYTHING to Kagome, I'll kill 'em and then kill 'em again in hell…

They too continued down the stairs out into the wide field. InuYasha whined, "With all these flowers I can't get a good scent of Kagome or Sango."

"Wait, InuYasha, here." He pointed to the area where the grass was once again parted. "Sango did this to show us the way."

"Then what're we waiting for? Let's go!"


Yeah, weird chapter. It's like the yellow brick road in the Wizard of Oz, except with a huge bear, some perverted guy who's name in English means Sexy, hidden stairs, tall grass, all with a side of doggy ears. D Hope you enjoyed this chapter. I'll have the next one hopefully soon. I'll be rapping the story up within the next 2 or 3 chapters. And trust me, you can hope to see a cutesy, love scene near the end. –giggle- And no, no lemon, sorry. XD Those aren't really my style… -sweatdrop-
